I really like CAS cards but I find that making them is often a challenge for me....I tend to think that more is more on a card and just keep heaping things on:-) BUT often times, less really can be more and CAS cards can be stunning! I have to remember to keep that in mind while I'm stamping! This is the reason I love challenges though, they push me out of my comfort zone and then it's easier for me to come up with something pretty, like this:
Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps: Falling leaves, woodgrain
Paper: Lucky limeade, very vanilla, rich razzleberry
Ink: Lucky limeade, rich razzleberry, pumpkin pie
Accessories: circle punch, dotted scallop border punch
I used a color combo for this card that I used last week and really liked for fall. Normally, I like softer combos for autumn but I really liked this one, it's fun. I think it also works well since the card design is so simple the colors can be a bit more bold without being overwhelming! I also used a card I made with this same set a few weeks back as inspiration too. This one is just a bit more simple. I didn't even need a sentiment since one of the leaves already says "grateful".
Now click on over and see what else the DT came up with and then play along and make a CAS card!
I love it, Mindy! I've fallen back in love with my Falling Leaves set this week. It's wonderful; I love how you paired it with the woodgrain too!
